One-On-One Virtual Nutrition Sessions
Who I Work With
I have experience working with a wide variety of populations stemming from my three years of community nutrition work with GrowNYC, nine months of clinical work during my Dietetic Internship at NYU Langone, and over four years working as RD at the PHP, IOP, and outpatient levels of care. I have experience working with trans and gender non-conforming clients, clients in larger bodies, adolescents, and clients with co-occurring mental health conditions including OCD, bipolar disorder, borderline personality disorder, anxiety, depression, autism, ADHD, and PTSD. Currently, my primary focuses and areas of specialty are:
LGBTQ+ identified folks with eating disorders or disordered eating
Neurodivergent folks experiencing difficulties with food and eating, including:
Decreased hunger and fullness cues
Hyperfixation leading to missing meals
Aversion to food tastes and textures
Difficultly with decision making around food
Avoidance of tasks such as cooking, grocery shopping, or washing dishes
Binge eating to obtain stimulation or reward
Adults diagnosed with ARFID or experiencing ARFID symptoms
Steps For 1:1 Nutrition Counseling
Discovery Call: I offer free 20 minute discovery calls to potential clients to make sure I am a good fit for you, and to answer any questions you may have about my work or nutrition sessions.
Initial Nutrition Assessment: This is an hour long session where we can get to know each other better, and I can gather helpful background and health information. We’ll discuss current and previous eating behaviors, health history, short and long-term goals, and your relationship with both food and your body.
Follow-up Sessions: During follow-up nutrition sessions we will discuss more about your short-term goals, set intentions for the coming week, and check-in about previous intentions. I approach these sessions with non-judgmental curiosity to help you identify current barriers, and can provide specific tools, skills, worksheets, and plans to support you.
Client Testimonials
“Quinn is kind, understanding, and very empathetic during our sessions. They are knowledgeable and eager to help, even if that means doing extra research outside of session times. She always validates your feelings and ensures you know that she is there for you. They will never judge you and you always feel that you can trust them with your feelings and actions. As a nutritionist, Quinn is the best you can ask for, and as someone recovering from an eating disorder she has aided the process over the years invaluably. She knows how to discuss things in a non-triggering way and has the experience to help with whatever situation you are in, and even more so they can push you to work hard for recovery without causing emotional distress. Overall, they are the best nutritionist you could ask for, especially if you have any issues with your relationship with food or body.”
“I have been attending a closed recovery group with Quinn for about 6 months now. Quinn is wonderful in terms of working with the group to address issues of concern to us and to bring in materials and information to assist in our recovery. I am a transmasculine person who has struggled with an eating disorder for a very long time and Quinn does an excellent job of grasping how my gender identity and gender dysphoria play into my eating disorder.”
“Quinn has been an absolute joy to work with. She's extremely knowledgeable about anything nutrition related and beyond, while always remaining personable and warm. They've helped me in more ways then I can describe.”
